"I BELIEVE IN PINK! I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."— Audrey Hepburn

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Every night, friends. You have done what you could. Let it go.

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson

A Holiday Porches Pink Saturday!

There is nothing like the holidays to bring out the best in people and I have to say that I simply love that! I have noticed that the posts on Facebook and even on twitter are so pleasant for the most part:)
How nice...

I have a few boards on Pinterest and for the most part I rarely have anyone pay attention to them...but right now I receive notices of new followers every day...Can you guess which board? No? Well...Pink Christmas! That's the one!...lol...

A Gather Together Pink Saturday!

       

    As Thanksgiving approaches, we all tend to think of those things that we are most thankful for. 
Lately I have been thinking that it is best to be thankful for the everyday...the things that we all take for granted...the things that many lost during hurricane Sandy.

I have a friend and fellow committee member (Survivor committee) that took it upon herself to create Project Hope. Pattie encouraged everyone she knows to gather clothes and other practical items and bring them to her. I was able to donate several bags of items and I met and got several bags more from friends...By the time I was through, I had a truckful:)
She gathered a team of 25 people to travel up to New Jersey to volunteer with an organization called Samaritan's Purse. 
They ended up taking over 80 boxes of clothes and other items! 
The group was assigned to work on a family home and to help haul out and clean up the home and grounds...
I was unable to go as I had to work, but I understand that the day was a huge success!   
The experienced has forever changed them...and myself...for the better...


So as we gather together this Thanksgiving and enjoy all that this holiday has to offer, please keep in mind all of the little things that your life includes...and give thanks for them:)
